<p>You’ll get financial aid info at orientation, but maybe not all the info for your package… that’s up to the financial aid office. As for the ID, yeah, that’s a 5 min process and you’ll leave school that day with an ID.</p>
<p>and you fullerton?</p>
<p>someone please help me out here. which way do you (anyone) think a spring admission letter will go:</p>
<ol>
<li>“congrats, you have been accepted to USC for Spring Semester 2007”</li>
</ol>
<p>or</p>
<ol>
<li>“we strongly urge you to consider reapplying for Spring Semester 2007”</li>
</ol>
<p>There are no spring semester applications so, probably the first one.</p>
<p>omg that makes a lot of sense. thanks</p>
<p>trojanwannabe applied to anneberg, right? isn’t that really competitive and elite? if so, it doesn’t shock me AS MUCH that he would get rejected with a 3.7 considering the average transfer GPA (which includes engineering students) is 3.57.</p>
<p>he was probably very borderline, and luck didn’t go his way.</p>
<p>ya that still sucks though.</p>
<p>he should have been admitted.</p>
<p>
I’m in. See you there.</p>
<p>SexMachine, if you’re admitted into spring semester it’ll say congrats balh blah blah spring quarter. You don’t need to reapply.</p>
<p>im really thinking i got rejected now because whenever i go onto the original online account i had (the one you use to fill out the admission application online), there’s a whole new Fall 2007 application (part 1 and part 2) laid out for me to fill out. so they probably sent me a letter saying something like “consider applying for Fall 2007.” mother****ers</p>
<p>SexMachine, I was thinking the same thing. Mine shows fall 2007 but I was admitted.</p>
<p>Sex, i dont think that has anything to do with it. just a feeling.</p>
<p>Sex, don’t worry yourself too much 
I just logged on to the Admission site and it says:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>So that doesn’t mean anything. Did you say you have no holds at the moment? If that gets updated to no holds, waiting for advisement… blah blah blah, then it’s set in stone and you’re in.</p>
<p>lowest grade I got in 2 years was 1 single C in a non-academic, extremely difficult 5-day a week TV production course. NO academic class was below a B and that was only one everything else was a B+ or higher mostly As or A-s though. I think it was because of Annenberg, i realized how tough the Journalism school at Annenberg was, but Communications wasn’t supposed to be quite as hard especially with a 3.7. I think what hurt me was that I still had a few GEs I could have taken out of residence that I didn’t complete and I regret that now. I didn’t think about transferring until Summer after my Freshmen year so I was pursuing my major at Hofstra and sprinkling in core classes here and there. If I knew I was going to transfer sooner. I would have stayed away from Major requirements and got all my cores out of the way earlier. I had a lot of credits and still needed a Cat I and Cat III GE completed so that may have been my downfall. They wouldn’t give me a reason. Said I was a qualified candidate, but its a numbers game and they only have so many spots. It just really terrible they made me wait until July 17th just to reject me. I gave up my housing because if I didnt request my deposit back by July 1st and then would have transferred I would have lost 300 dollars and I couldnt afford to do that. So now I have to reapply for housing at Hofstra. A biased friend of mine who’s big bro went to FUCLA has a theory that it was because I applied for Fin Aid and my EFC was 53. I have seen some people on here with even lower EFCs who got in so Im hoping thats not the case. And I kinda want to refuse to believe that that was the reason. She thinks with my stats though if it looked like I was a little more wealthy, so I 'd be paying for a decent amount of tuition myself and there was a chance my parents would donate that I would have gotten in. I truly hope there is not that kind of corruption since they say they are need- blind. She has mentioned a few of her friends who got in as freshman recently who were not very bright but theor parents were very wealthy. As I said she has personal bias against the school because her brother was a Bruin so I don’t take her accusations too seriously, but it may have been a factor.</p>
<p>Trojan, don’t let those thoughts get into your head… honestly. It’s hard to see what the college wants, but I can almost promise it wasn’t the aid. Hell, isn’t there someone in this thread that USC forked over $47K to? Heh, yeah, it has nothing to do with that. You don’t really know what the competition was like for Annenberg this fall, I know it sucks, but fact of the matter is there were probably a lot of people with your stats or higher and you were probably very damn close to getting in… hence why it took so long. You just didn’t quite make the cut, and I’m sorry that you had to go through this for so long, but beating yourself up over it won’t solve anything… nor will creating conspiracy theories. I wish you the best man, I know this **** stings, but… it will go away with time… and you can always appeal or try again for next fall… there are options… but don’t let this experience steer you off your path… What’s the main idea behind the Trojan? Fight on… that’s right, even when **** hits the fan, stand back up and keep fighting. Good luck to you man…</p>
<p>one quarter of USC applicants are culled from the bottom third of the income rung. what that person said was bull.</p>
<p>i JUST turned in my aid docs, and my EFC is 20k. </p>
<p>but mrpuppy hit it right. Fight on, and don’t give up the fight. :)</p>
<p>I’ve pretty much gotten over it and as I said I don’t put a lot of confidence in her theory. I’m already going to be a junior this year so reapplying isnt really an option, I’d like to appeal but I relly don’t have anything new that would make them change their mind. I’ve pretty much come to terms with it now. I’ve also decided I’m gonna go to grad school for a Masters in Journalism. My top choice is going to once again be USC, I’m also going to look into NYU, Columbia, and Northwestern. This is just a preliminary list. I’ll definitely look into some more schools that are a lot safer than these as well, but I’m aiming for the top.</p>
<p>good luck in the future wannabe… like i said before its USC’s loss.</p>
<p>damn, well i strongly suggest you appeal. you’ve gone this far, so what do you have to lose?</p>
<p>*****, it’s gonna suck not having trojan with us in this thread anymore. and after this summer, all you admitted trojans won’t be here either… which leaves me to carry the torch. in the fall, you admitted trojans should definitely meet up or something, haha.</p>
